Zoos, Sanctuaries, Aquariums and Wildlife Parks

Historic Rivermill is one of the Gold Coast hinterland’s most unique and family-friendly attractions, where nature, animals, and riverside charm come together for an unforgettable day out. Set beside the tranquil Coomera River, visitors can often spot wild turtles who have made Rivermill their home — a magical sight for both children and adults alike.

The interactive animal area invites you to hand-feed friendly alpacas, deer, and goats, while the open riverside grounds are perfect for picnics and relaxed moments surrounded by nature. For those wanting to try something new, our friendly horses offer short rides and scenic farm experiences, with options suitable for all ages.

Whether you’re here to meet the animals, enjoy a peaceful meal at our farm café, or simply take in the natural beauty of the river, Historic Rivermill is a must-visit stop when exploring the Gold Coast hinterland.
